There are so many delicious things in this song that I wouldn't even know where to begin. The way she begins with a signature Gaga vowel vocalizing only to proceed to serve us the grittiest, rawest and most unfiltered vocals of her pop career.

 

Her growling and screaming on this song... The quirky "aahs" and "ughs"... The savage and powerful chorus. And then that falsetto at the end? Bitch, please spare us. She absolutely and unquestionably ate with this song.

i love those vocals. the rawness the ad libs, the whispering, the low register, the theatrics. in those terms it's actually similar to bad romance tbh :staymad:

I looooove the "uah's/whoa's" in between... (like at 0:18)  it sounds like it's from a video game when your avatar jumps and lands somewhere... :billie:

I love how she changed her singing on "The Joker" and "Disease". You know it's Gaga singing but it's also different from what she usually does. It's really cool

It really is!

 

But what really makes it shine is that her voice seems to have undergone a huge upgrade. It almost feels like her range and power is unlimited now and she can do whatever she want with it. I'm giddy thinking about what's on this new album.

Those background vocals in the second pre-chorus?

 

Screaming for me baby,

like you're gonna DIE.

I agree. She is always been a visual and vocal chameleon, but I feel like she’s played in the more “powerful” side of her vocals the last few years. She has such a playful voice too, and this song, I feel, does SUCH a good job with including her vocal chops, but also the iconic Gaga low register talking/singing, the crazy vowels, the gasps and sighs, and the less “polished” delivery.

So happy with this song :cryga:

Yes! All those twists in her vocals reminded me so much of Bad romance! We are so used to that song that some may not noticed it anymore, but I love that on her, and I love that she decided to use that style again on Disease.

 

Seriously, last night I was kind of sad hearing that snippet that leaked on X two hours before and people saying it might be real, and I was "oh no I hate this".

But when the real song started I was "ok this cannot be it". And it wasn't. And then the chorus came and gosh, what a hit it was.

This song is amazing, and it's everything I expected from Gaga to return to her real form.

the way she vibrates the "tonight" in the second pre-chorus instantly reminded me of Bowie's singing style + a horror film narrator

definitely her best lead single to date, along with Born This Way and Bad Romance

excited to see how this going to spread throughout time

Wait until we get a live performance :giveup:

If she changes up the vocal arrangement like she did for Jimmy Kimmel / Happy Mistake (E.g. recorded version vs live) I will simply pass away.

The vocals go so much harder than I thought they would-was not expecting her to go this hard with it .

sent the song to a friend of mine as soon as it came out and he said “I’m so glad she’s back to making weird noises again” lmao
